[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because ACPS first priority is feeding the poor. It’s a welfare service masquerading as a school system[/quote] Union jobs. They don’t pay more for excellence so you get what you get - mediocrity in everything. It all comes down to corporate culture. [/quote] Ignorant comment. Arlington pays as much as or more than anyone else in the DC area. They're not union yet, but once they are you can count on quality improving compared to schools in the area that are not unionized. Unions attract better employees. Your last sentence is the only one that might make some sense.[/quote] When we say "ACPS" it is usually referring to Alexandria, not Arlington. But anyway, I am an APS (Arlington) staff member, have no desire at all to join a union, and don't think an additional bureaucratic machine that protects low-performing employees is what APS needs right now.[/quote]
